Science educator Wendy Sadler has won a national award in recognition of her passion for promoting acoustics to school students and the general public through music.
Wendy, director of University spin-out company 'science made simple' has been awarded the Institute of Acoustics' Award for Promoting Acoustics to the Public.
The Award, an engraved glass trophy, will be presented at the Institute's spring conference in April 2008.
It is the latest in a series of awards for Wendy and her business, which promotes science to the public and was formed as a spin-out from the School of Physics and Astronomy in 2002.
Earlier this year, she was awarded the Descartes Prize from the European Commission's Directorate-General for Research - regarded as the ultimate accolade for those involved in communicating science. A former Welsh Woman of the Year (science and technology), Wendy is also chair of WISE in Wales (Women Into Science, Engineering and Construction).
An accomplished musician, Wendy often uses musical demonstrations to bring the shows to life. These include performing the Last Post on a corrugated tube, and making strange, vaguely musical, sounds from a dustbin and a bucket.
She said: "Acoustics is a fascinating area of study and one that has a fundamental impact on many aspects of our everyday lives. I am delighted that I am able to use music as the main theme to encourage young people in particular to think more about the science of sound and hopefully generate an interest later in life to consider acoustics as a possible career."
Colin English, President of the Institute said: "Through live presentations, TV appearances, popular articles, children's books and through the training of the next generation of science communicators, Wendy has promoted the science of sound to many thousands of people from diverse backgrounds over the last 11 years. This makes her a worthy winner of the Promoting Acoustics to the Public Award."
'science made simple' uses a range of innovative methods to communicate the message that science is something everyone can enjoy. As well as its core work of delivering spectacular and entertaining shows such as Cartoon Science and Bubbles and Balloons in schools, the team has contributed to science television programmes on ITV, BBC and Channel 4, 19 children's books and regular radio appearances. The company also provides consultancy to the Research Councils and training to scientists, and has broken new ground in offering career opportunities in science communication.
This is the second year of the Award for Promoting Acoustics to the Public. It was introduced because noise has moved increasingly on to the public agenda.

The Final Countdown
WIN SOME, LOSE SOME: The national Construye tus Suenos youth business plan competition was two weekends ago and I brought two girls from my community to present their clothing store plan. Unfortunately, they did not place, thus not winning money, but they told me that they had a wonderful experience none the less. I mean, a plethora of food, lots of Dominican youth their age, and a free trip to the capitol. Who wouldn't enjoy that? It was ...
A Waning Tide
... I am going to have an intercambio (exchange) with another volunteer's youth group to help paint as well; make a whole day of it. I'm excited that my last project is something tangible to show not only my community, but myself, a visual representation of just a small part of my work here.

Busy in the Summertime
... as I walked up to the school there were scores of children waiting that all cheered when they saw me come up with the art materials in hand. There were about 5 scores to be exact so we had to split up the kids into two groups and have them come on alternating days. Luckily I had help from friends in the community but it was still a lot of directing and control on my part. We did drawing exercises, painting, making cards for Father's Day, and so ...

It was still an inspirational experience and with your help, we can fund this year's competition again. Please donate whatever you can to the cause.

We met Justin for lunch and coffee, and he told us about a beach nearby that we should check out. The three of us hopped in a gua gua and 15 minutes later we were let out at Playa San Rafael. The beach was still made of pebbles and stones, and the waves were almost too rough to swim. But there was a creek that split the beach in half, and between the beach and the mountain there were man made pools that the creek ...

newark-atlanta-pensicola (Delta)Jun 15, 20140I have a 45 minute layover with my grandchild, and am trying to decide if I should carry-on or check my luggage. If the distance between gates is substantial (I won't be able to run) then carry on for two might make it cumbersome to get to the next gate. However, since it's a short vacation, I don't want our luggage to get lost, and am worried because of the short layover that it might not make the plane.Does anyone know which areas of the airport these flights are (from Newark....to Pensicola on Delta)grandmaSun, Jun 15
LuggageMar 12, 20143I am making a connection in Atlanta for my international flight (Costa Rica), do I have to claim my luggage and then check it in again ? I'm hoping that my luggage is going direct to Costa Rica from Syracuse where I originated.CRTue, Mar 11No. On your way to Costa RCA you don't have to do anything with your baggage in Atlanta. Only on your return will you have to claim it in immigration.ZapTue, Mar 11Hi thanks for your quick response.. my next question is regarding your reply.. you said that on my return to Atlanta I have to claim my luggage in the immigration? Even though my final destination is Syracuse? From Costa Rica I am connecting my next flight in Atlanta to Syracuse. So in other words I have to go through the immigration, claim my luggage then check it in again to my next flight to Syracuse? I'm sorry for all this question but I just want to really clarify so I'm not going to be lost in transit ;o) Thanks much!CLWed, Mar 12
SkycapsFeb 2, 20141I'll be traveling alone with my 1 year old baby from Boston to Peru with a 2 hours layover in Atlanta. On the way back we have 3 hours layover. Is enough time? Also I would like to know if ATL airport count with skycaps to help me with my luggage ?AnaSat, Feb 1Your transfer times will suffice. Your arrival at & departure from ATL depends on which airlines you take. I suggest you open www.ifly.com/atl, then click on 'Terminal Map' under 'QUICK LINKS', and scroll down to the detailed text. Bags would be automatically transferred - unless you bought two separate tickets or the other airline does not code-share. Skycaps & carts are available. As to your return: Connecting passengers recheck-in their bags by proceeding to the transit area past baggage claim and turning left to baggage recheck counters, then follow signs to Concourse F Plane Train station or pedestrian walkway connecting to concourses E, D, C, B, A, T, and to the Domestic Main Terminal.sufeb14Sun, Feb 2
Can I find my way?Jan 8, 20141Can you explain concourse, terminal, gate......? This information and forum is a great help....thanks!PatWed, Jan 8A terminal is where you check in for flights or claim baggage. It is also usually where immigration procedures are done. A Concourse is basically a hallway or an area where gates are. Concourses are usually given different letters to tell the difference between them. A Gate is a doorway, usually with an enclosed ramp called a jetway, that leads to an airplane. For example in Atlanta, gate D16 would be in concourse D and be the 16th gate. All concourses in Atlanta are connected by the plane train. At the end of the concourses are two terminals, the domestic terminal (S) and the International Terminal. If you are on a domestic flight you check in and claim your baggage at the domestic terminal and if on an international you do that in international. Each have their own security checkpoints so when you're going between concourses in a connection you don't have to go through security.ZAPWed, Jan 8
checking inAug 31, 20133I'm flying from Des Moines to Atlanta, Atlanta to NYC. I have the printed information with the bar code. I'm checking one bag. Should I use the kiosk and pay for the bag first thing when I get there or go to the Delta desk to be checked in with the bag so I can get my boarding pass for Atlanta to NYC & make sure my checked bag will be sent on to NYC?KJHFri, Aug 30Were both of your tickets bought on the same reservation? If so, the kiosks attached to the counter at the Des Moines airport will let you pay for your bag and print a bag tag through to New York and the agent will put it on for you. You don't have to do anything with your bag in Atlanta.ZAPFri, Aug 30Yes, both tickets were bought on the same reservation. Will the agent also give me a boarding pass to board the plane in Atlanta? Your help is very much appreciated!!kjhFri, Aug 30Yes, when you check in you will get boarding passes for both of your flights (with Delta you actually use the same boarding pass for all flights). You can also check-in and pay for your bag online from home, so all you will have to do at the Des Moines airport is scan your boarding pass and drop off your bag.ZAPSat, Aug 31
Help for Elderly - Also, speed importantAug 15, 20131Need help for quickest way to get from arrival gate to Dollar rental car place.Wedding2013Thu, Aug 15If you arrive in concourse T you just follow the signs to the car rental counters. All other concourses, you will take the Plane Train to the domestic terminal if arriving on a domestic flight and then go up the escalator at the station and the car rental counters are the first thing you see (if you need to go to the counter). If you can go directly to your car, you take the ATL SkyTrain from the Terminal to the consolidated rental car facility. It's about a 5 minute ride.ZAPThu, Aug 15
Transferring from An International Flight to a Domentic FlightJul 8, 20131We are on a Delta flight from LHR arriving Atlanta at 7:00 pm. Originally the connecting Delta flight to San Diego departed Atlanta at 9:50 pm (2 hr 50 min layover). Yesterday I received an e-mail from Delta that the time of the departing flight to San Diego had been changed to 8:30 pm (1 hr 30 min layover). We plan to just have one carryon each. Is this enough time to get through immigration, customs and to the departing flight. Right now I don't find any other later flights on Delta to San Diego. Also, even though I have requested a wheelchair in the past, this time I did not because we had such a long layover. I am not able to run or jog through the airport. Will the wheelchair help to speed things up or not. Sometimes I have had to wait so long for a wheelchair that I give up and just start walking even though it can be difficult and slow if the walk is long. Most grateful for any advice you can give us.dori44Mon, Jul 8

Outdoor power equipment maker Ariens Company signed an agreement to acquire three specialty direct marketing brands - Gempler's, Ben Meadows, and AW Direct - from W. W. Grainger, Inc. The agreement is expected to close on Jan. 1, 2014. "As we grow the distribution side of the business these companies represent strong niche segments that fit nicely with our current portfolio of outdoor brands," says Dan Ariens, company President and CEO. "This acquisition allows us to build a more diverse distribution platform for the company that will ultimately help offset the inherent seasonality of some of the company's equipment products such as snow blowers." The three brands are all direct marketing companies providing equipment and supplies to niche professional markets. * Gempler's serves the agricultural, horticultural, grounds maintenance, and contractor markets. * Ben Meadows serves the forestry, fire and rescue, resource management and grounds maintenance markets. * AW Direct serves the towing and service vehicle markets. Ariens Company will retain some of the management, customer service, and other employees currently working for the three companies. It will also maintain Wisconsin offices in Madison and Janesville where the positions are currently located. The company will continue to distribute Gempler's, Ben Meadows, and AW Direct products from the current distribution center located in Janesville, WI. The brands will be operated as a single entity under a newly formed Specialty Brands Group, which also includes after-market equipment parts supplier Stens and commercial landscaper parts supplier J. Thomas.

Windows is also a market leading applications platform with .NET have a far greater market share and base of developers than vFabric.

Why Your Vendors' Sales Model Matters to You
• • 0 Comments
The Freemium sales model is a business model innovation best suited to inexpensive products that are very easily understood (and therefore not very new or very different) and that solve an obvious problem in a manner that is more convenient for the customer to acquire and implement. There are not many new virtualization and cloud technology companies who set out to produce undifferentiated products which suggests that a general application of the Freemium model to startups in our ecosystem is ill advised. Enterprise customers should pay great attention to products that are being marketing in this manner to ensure that they do not end up growing the use of something that was purchased in a tactical manner into a strategic use case.

Unto us a child is born
There are lots of stories of Christmas and The First Noel. Instead of worrying about which of these are myths, fables, and traditions, let's read the actual inspired account. This is just a few short pages and only takes a few minutes, but it's more thrilling and more uplifting than any mere myth, fable, or tradition could possibly be. Starting with the prophecy of Isaiah written more than 700 years before the birth of Jesus Christ…
Seasons Greetings
Sincerely and honestly, at this time and always, we wish you the joy from above that only the Lord Jesus Christ can give — let us tell you why — we wish you then, not a Merry Christmas, but a joyous eternity.
XMAS, the Diabolical Paradox
Diabolical: of, or pertaining to, the Devil.
Paradox: a self-contradictory statement.
Christmas is purported to be a celebration honoring the birth of the Lord Jesus Christ. By simply and honestly examining the history, the scriptures and the actual practices of Christmas, it may be easily seen that it is truly a work of Satan foisted on an unsuspecting and willingly gullible humanity.
Does Easter Glorify Christ?
Easter traces its roots back to the vilest pagan traditions which are specifically condemned by the word of God. Christians should seek to glorify the Lord Jesus Christ in their lives as directed by the Bible and not through pagan traditions.
Happy Halloween?
The origins of Halloween are popish and pagan in the extreme, incorporating pagan practices that are condemned by God"s word. Christians should not mix demonic, satanic, witchcraft with their spiritual natures.

Research in Motion (RIM) has announced a name change as it officially launched its BlackBerry 10 platform and detailed the first devices running the much anticipated new operating system.
At simultaneous events in New York, London and other cities, RIM announced it is changing its name to BlackBerry to simplify branding.
As expected, the firm unveiled two BlackBerry 10 devices, comprising the touchscreen Z10 and the Q10, a device with both Qwerty and touch input that has a strong resemblance to earlier BlackBerry smartphones.
The Z10 will be the first device to ship in the UK, available from 31 January through outlets including Carphone Warehouse, Phones 4U, Vodafone, O2, Three and BT according to BlackBerry.
It will also be available on the EE network, where it supports 4G communications capability. Other networks will add this capability as their 4G support is rolled out, BlackBerry said.
Chief executive Thorsten Heins, who has been at the company's reins for almost a year, said that today's launch is not the finish line, but the starting line for BlackBerry 10.
"BlackBerry 10 is for people who are hyper-connected socially, people who like getting things done, people who need balance in both their personal and professional lives," Heins said.
The platform will "lead the way form mobile communications to true mobile computing, where you can be constantly connected to all your information all of the time," he added.
BlackBerry demonstrated features of its new platform, including BlackBerry Balance that partitions the device into separate work and personal environments when used in conjunction with the BlackBerry Enterprise Service (BES) 10, which the firm unveiled separately last week.
Also demoed was BBM Screenshare, which allows a user to show what is on their handset to a contact, and features designed to appeal to consumers such as a video editing tool called BlackBerry Story Maker.
However, the success of BlackBerry 10 will depend on applications, and the firm claimed that it already has over 70,000 available on its BlackBerry World store.
The firm was keen to push key applications ready or coming, such as clients for SAP, Skype, Cisco's Webex, plus the Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn social networks, and promised more will be coming down the pipeline.

This is my first attempt at posting photos. Hope it shows them half as beautiful as they really are.

Yep, they are beautiful. I live in central TX and we never see anything like that. Lovely! |
Gorgeous! You make me want some. I've tried planting Bloodgood Japanese maples. Our alkaline soil, water and low humidities out here on the plains do not agree with them at all. Does anyone know of any japanese maples that might do OK with alkaline soils? I have a semi-shady spot I'd love to put a couple in. |
Beautiful, beautiful pictures. |

Nice piccies - I also like your labelling. I have one Japanese maple that i bought as a small seedling. They cost an arm and a leg normally and there was no way I could buy a decent sized tree. So i bought a small seedling from a stall of one of the specialist nurseries. They go well with the Meconopsis, primulas and ferns that I grow. |
very nice, kate. the fall colors are really beautiful, moreso than what we get here, even from maples. i grow 'ukigumo' and 'seiryu' but neither compare well to your specimens. these are some of my favorite plants. |

Feedback isn't always easy to hear — particularly when it suggests things need improvement. But dismissing advice too quickly is a mistake.
A recent Charleston Teacher Alliance survey deserves the attention of Superintendent Nancy McGinley and the Charleston County School Board. No, it doesn't represent the opinions of all faculty, but 1,000 teacher voices certainly have something to say.
For starters, they say teachers in that survey group believe that the climate in schools, the superintendent and principals are falling short of last year. And that should catch the attention of Charleston County School District officials.
Teachers say the superintendent hasn't done enough to eliminate non-essential spending and put more manpower in the classrooms. They contend that their input isn't being given enough attention. And they complain that their time is being wasted at meetings to disseminate information that could be sent via email.
School board member Tom Ducker expressed interest in learning more about the survey and perhaps establishing a board committee to discuss it.
Why not? It might just provide some information that the board could use to shape policy.
Mr. Ducker's was a better response than the one Dr. McGinley offered: that the survey wasn't as comprehensive as one the district commissioned. She declined to draw conclusions based on its findings, but said she would redouble her efforts to communicate what the district does and why.
However, communication is better when it occurs before decisions are made, not as an afterthought. And communication goes both ways.
Dr. McGinley has shown that she is interested in teacher input. She meets monthly with teachers and visits schools. If those meetings are productive, perhaps she should use them to reach more teachers on the front end of major decisions.
Meanwhile, Board Chair Cindy Bohn Coats invited teachers to let the board know what they want so it can try to meet their needs.
Both staff and board members will make decisions that are unpopular, not because they are deaf to teacher feelings but because they have broader goals.
But unless they hear from teachers, parents and community members, they might miss out on making a better decision.
Sometimes the quietest and smallest voice speaks the loudest — if the right people listen.

One hundred and fifty years ago, the U.S.-Dakota War erupted in the Minnesota River valley and ended with the largest mass execution in American history. More than 400 soldiers and settlers and an unknown number of Dakota were killed in the conflict. The New York Times published these St. Paul Pioneer accounts of Dakota attacks on white settlements and the U.S. Army's response.

Questions on Milk Kefir Grains
- From Chris at 1/15/2015 11:57 PM
- What are the bacteria and yeasts in your starter?
- The list of beneficial yeast and bacteria in milk kefir grains can be found here: http://www.culturesforhealth.com/milk-kefir-grains-composition-bacteria-yeast
- Do you find this question helpful? Yes No
- From ann tsipolitis at 1/1/2015 11:15 AM
- can i make new kefir without draining the first batch?
- To ensure that the grains have an adequate supply of fresh food and to minimize the risk of mold, we recommend straining the grains out and placing them in a clean jar with fresh milk for each new batch.
- Do you find this question helpful? Yes No
- From Susan at 12/28/2014 8:29 PM
- What is in the milk kefir starter kit besides the grains? What is the proper amount of milk to use each time (after rehydration) to get the best results.
- The kit contains grains, a plastic / nylon mesh strainer and a very helpful booklet which includes information and recipes. The grains are activated in 1 cup of milk and you will begin increasing the volume when the milk thickens to a buttermilk-like texture. The amount of milk for each batch will depend on the temperature of your culturing area and how long you culture the milk. A small amount of milk will culture very quickly, especially in a warm location. 1 teaspoon of active grains can normally culture 4 cups of milk within 24 hours if the temperature is within range.

- From Jean at 11/30/2014 6:09 PM
- I received my milk kefir grains during the summer months. They were left in the mailbox on a 90 degree day for several hours. I re-hydrated them and have been making kefir and the grains are growing, but I have always wondered, if I lost some of the beneficial bacteria and yeast from that exposure to the heat?
- If your milk kefir grains are producing good kefir, then you are receiving all the possible benefits they can give! If they are not, please contact our customer support representatives by phone, email or chat.
- Do you find this question helpful? Yes No
- From Maria Carstensen at 11/12/2014 7:52 PM
- I am ordering both kefir grains and yogurt starter. I would like to get the hang of making the yogurt for a while before starting kefir....how long and how can I store my kefir grains when I receive them...Thanks
- At room temperature, the grains will last 12 to 18 months. However, we recommend refrigeration so the dehydrated grains will last 18 + months.
- Do you find this question helpful? Yes No
- From Leslie at 8/27/2014 12:04 AM
- I just got my grains and my hubby bought ultra past. milk...is it safe to use for one day to keep the grains or should I just put the grains in the fridge to keep? I don't want to ruin the grains with this milk...
- The results using ultra-pasteurized milk are inconsistent. However, you will be discarding the first few batches so start using the ultra pasteurized milk, but make the change to regular pasteurized milk as soon as you can. This milk will not support the grains, and you risk possibly harming them the longer they are in this milk.
- Do you find this question helpful? Yes No
- From Maria at 7/25/2014 12:20 PM
- I'm going to be away for the weekend; is it safe to leave my kefir on the counter or should I refrigerate? Thanks.
- Anytime you are not able to give your milk kefir grains fresh milk every 24 hours, you must preserve them in some manner. For short term, you can simply put them in fresh milk in a jar/lid and store them in the fridge. They are safe for up to 3 weeks. If someone is able to give them fresh milk at the end of that 3 week period, you can store them another 3 weeks. After that, they must be put back to work or they will suffer damage and will likely die.
We do not recommend storing them often in the fridge, as this can break down the grains' bacteria and enzymes and cause them to cease working. - Do you find this question helpful? Yes No
- From Dina at 6/19/2014 7:21 AM
- My kefir is curdling after I strain it and put it in the fridge. What am I doing wrong?
- It sounds like your kefir is continuing to culture in the fridge. You may want to check the temperature in your fridge and if you are storing your kefir in the door, move it closer to the back of the fridge where it will remain colder. If your kefir is separating during the culturing process, you will need to increase the amount of milk you are using, or decrease the culturing time to reach that wonderful "thickened-milk" (like buttermilk) stage before storage.
- Do you find this question helpful? Yes No
- From Mary at 6/9/2014 4:49 PM
- I live on the southeastern Arizona desert and we do not have central heating/cooling. I don't have a thermometer in my kitchen, but I'm sure it gets over 85 in the summer and sometimes below 65 (we heat with wood) in the winter. Are the milk cultures so temperature dependent that I would not be able to make my own kefir? I tried the water kefir last fall, but I guess it got too cold and my grains died. I love the kefir cheese and really want to make own if it is at all possible.
- Yes, the milk kefir grains must be cultured between 68º-85ºF. If it gets too cold or too warm, they will not be viable. Perhaps looking at the following articles might be helpful in maintaining your temperature during the cold and hot periods of the year:
http://www.culturesforhealth.com/warm-weather-care/ - Do you find this question helpful? Yes No
- From Bill at 4/17/2014 1:00 AM
- Great Site! Is the protein in milk broken down or digested when being made into kefir? The casein in milk is really hard to digest and is why many health professionals recommend giving up dairy. Thanks!
- During the culturing process lactose is consumed by the grains. Casein still remains.
- Do you find this question helpful? Yes No

- Thankful -- Cost Savings and Healthy Review by bonnie
Value Quality Price I placed my kefir grains in the refrigerator for a few weeks until I was ready to use them. It took a few batches for them to really kick in and start making thick kefir, but the last batch thickened well. I appreciate the tips that CFH has for cold and warm weather care. I am thankful for the cost savings of being able to make my own kefir over and over again and being able to make a natural product without added ingredients.

- love the grains! Review by Soli
Value Quality Price I bought my first batch of milk kefir grains from CFH back in 2011. Even though I did not handle them right at that time I still got a few years use out of them. Then one day they quit and I got a new batch. This time I prepared them right from the start. I drink raw milk only and did not know back in 2011 I could not use that milk to start the grains. This time I did right, buying pasteurized milk, changing every 24 hours, and slowly introducing some raw into the culture. Now my grains are acting like good healthy grains (the last batch never grew, these are!) and I am getting better quality kefir that before.

Value Quality Price This kefir is easy to keep working, and has a lovely tartness to it.
(Posted on 1/19/2015)
- I'll buy this again. Review by roxiboomalotti
Value Quality Price This product is great! Mine developed curds and whey much more quickly than expected which resulted in a big mess and in the need to purchase another round of this product. So, be sure to tend yours closely.
When I have purchased these grains in the past, I have been 100% satisfied. Additionally, I love supporting a site that provides so much strong information and delicious recipes for the fermentation community!
Response from CFH: Curds and whey is extremely common when culturing Milk Kefir Grains. The grains can recover and culture future batches successfully with minor adjustments. Please contact Customer Support before discarding any cultures.(Posted on 1/16/2015)

- Great Product Review by Whitney
Value Quality Price I have a hard time keeping yogurt made. I have found that having kefir on hand to make smoothies with when I am out of yogurt is very helpful. It is very easy culture to use, and I have found that my family doesn't mind the flavor difference in smoothies.

- Amazing results! Review by Tanya
Value Quality Price Order arrived very fast. On day 4 after starting rehydrating (I used whole organic milk) I already had kefir to drink! But it did not stop there. On day 5 I realized that 1litre of milk is too little for my grains. I transferred them into 1.89l jar that I filled with milk to the top. Amazingly I had kefir in less then 24 hrs. What I am doing now is I keep the jar in front of open window (I covered it with brown plastic bag) just to slow down the process a bit. I now use 2% organic milk ( as whole one did require agitation). The taste and texture of the kefir is amazing! It is drinkable and smooth.
My only "complaint" that it's like a pet (meaning you have to take care of it and feed it) and my pet is VERY productive.
I could not be happier with how it's turned out.(Posted on 12/26/2014)
- Happy Customer Review by syblef
Value Quality Price The Kefir grains were ready the next day. I used 2% milk. The only draw back to my order was that I paid extra for 3 day shipping. Cultures for Health shipped them right away but USPS didn't deliver them until 10 days later. Thank goodness the grains were dry or that could have been a problem. I would not hesitate to order again but won't pay extra for fast shipping which was not Cultures for Health's fault. They did their part.

- My Milk Kefir is much better than store bought! Review by Cris
Value Quality Price My grains are very productive. When I received them I have to admit I was disappointed at the amount. Just looked like such a little bit. But, after rehydrating them and making Kefir, those little grains are busy little workers! I can't drink all they produce. Love my Kefir Grains.
And, customer service is amazing. Everyone I've spoken to is eager to help and offers much needed advice. I appreciate them and all the help they've given me with all my fermenting and culturing trials, errors and successes!(Posted on 12/9/2014)
- A great product Review by Pam
Value Quality Price I love the kefir I'm making. I had no previous experience with kefir, so I had a week of trial and error. I talked by phone and chatted online with the personnel and they were very helpful. They sorted out my issues and immediately I was on track.. Thank you, Cultures for Health!

- great value and flavor Review by Jean
Value Quality Price This product is excellent. I make kefir for a lot less money than before. I don't feel guilty about drinking as much as I want because it is so inexpensive. It also tastes great! So far I have shared grains with one other person and plan to share with more. I'll always be sure to tell them about the great info on this website as well.
(Posted on 11/30/2014)
- Less tart Review by Carrie
Value Quality Price This kefir is less tart than they grains I had used for 8 years. I had trouble getting them going at first but persisted, with help from CFH and it works now. I don't see the gelatinous cottage cheese like grains with this kefir, the grains are more blended in with the kefir so I'm not sure how much they will multiply. Overall, good stuff!
(Posted on 11/27/2014)
- Wow! So Worth it! Review by Mishiko
Value Quality Price I am so glad that I purchased the Milk Kefir Grains. I have Kefir in my home every single day so I never have to buy it from the store. I never knew there were so many ways to use Kefir. This is well worth the money...and the health benefits! So happy am I!
(Posted on 11/25/2014)
- Very Good Product Review by Louise
Value Quality Price We have always had two goats for our own milk products - When I heard
about Kefir - I thought it sounded like a good idea - certainly worth trying.
We ordered the grains from you and we were very happy with how quickly
they worked and how super easy it is! We live on a farm and have lots
of fresh fruit in season and with the extra we can or freeze. We like to
whiz the fruit in our Vita Mix and put the Kefir in - oh boy, that is gooood.
We just can't seem to get enough of it! We haven't even been making cheese because we like the kefir better.(Posted on 11/24/2014)
- Great Grains Review by Tulip
Value Quality Price I love the flavor. My quart of kefir is usually cultured within 24.

Boardwalk Empire Recap, Episode 12: A Return to Speechifying
Boardwalk Empire capped its first season with a disappointing finale. The uneven gangster series failed to take full advantage of the momentum it had built up in the last few episodes. Somehow the story stopped flowing. There was too much stilted talk. Too much explaining, too much soliloquizing.

1969 Chicago Cubs
From BR Bullpen
[edit] 1969 Chicago Cubs / Franchise: Chicago Cubs / BR Team Page
Record: 92-70, Finished 2nd in NL Eastern Division (1969 NL)
[edit] History, Comments, Contributions
The 1969 Chicago Cubs appeared to be headed for the postseason for the first time in over 20 years. Their lineup was led by two future Hall of Famers, first baseman Ernie Banks and outfielder Billy Williams. All-Star third baseman Ron Santo clubbed 29 homers and drove in 123 runs, and All-Star catcher Randy Hundley provided experience behind the plate. The pitching staff was led by a pair of 20 game winners, Bill Hands and future Hall of Famer Ferguson Jenkins.
In the first year of divisional play, the Cubs jumped to an early advantage in the NL East, leading by two games going into May. By June 15, the lead had extended to nine games, before dipping to 3.5 on July 9. But the Cubbies would go on an amazing stretch winning 22 of their next 33 games. Leaving the Cubs with a nine-game lead on the New York Mets on August 16. But by September 8th, the lead was down to just 2 1/2 games, going into a two-game series against New York in Shea Stadium. The Mets won both games and took over the division lead on September 10th, never surrendering it, as the Cubs dropped 12 out of their last 20 games to finish eight games behind the Mets.

Feature: Graphics Fundamentals
Last month I demonstrated how I could convert the editorial page into a CSS-only layout and in doing so, used a variation of the usual WPDFD house-style.
I had lots of comments, and thanks to all who took the trouble to write, but the consensus was pretty much half and half with no overwhelming preference one way or the other. Some asked why I was changing at all and others thought the new look was a positive step forward.
Well, as you can see, I have taken the casting vote in favor of the new style even though I'm probably making a rod for my own back. The only minor criticism of the new design was that it became totally unreadable in older browsers like Netscape 4.x. I didn't think any WPDFD readers still used Netscape 4.x, but obviously some still do. Rather than exclude them altogether, I've arranged for the stylesheet to be disabled for Netscape 4.x using the '@import' trick which also brought an unexpected side benefit.
The 'browser links' section received great acclaim, so that will now be a regular feature. Links to the latest versions of all the main browsers will also have an indication of which have been updated since the previous month so you will know if you are up to date.
This month, we are back to my pet subject, graphic design, but from a slightly different perspective than usual. Here are some things that they don't generally teach you at art college.

May 2009
News from Attorneys General Offices
- Florida Attorney General Bill McCollum announced that a case worker for the Bayview Center for Mental Health was charged with stealing more than $3700 from a patient under her care.
- Kansas Attorney General Steve Six announced that the pharmacist in charge of Hogan's Pharmacy in Lyons was found guilty in an Internet pill mill scheme.
- Maine Attorney General Janet Mills was a speaker at a conference on "Prescription Drug Diversion: When Health Becomes Hazard." The conferees agreed that the complex prescription drug diversion problem requires attention from a broad cross-section of expertise.
- Michigan Attorney General Mike Cox announced a website that provides a one-stop site to help Michigan seniors find information on health care, finances, veterans' benefits, and consumer protection.
- Mississippi Jim Hood announced that a hospice nurse pled guilty to two misdemeanor charges of practicing medicine without a license. Evidence in the case demonstrated that the 67,000 dosage units given to a patient was so high that it caused death. She was sentenced to pay a $300 fine. A co-indictee in the case, physician Dr. Paul White, pled guilty last June to six counts of aiding and abetting the practice of medicine without a license.
- New Jersey Attorney General Anne Milgram announced that a licensed pharmacist was convicted of creating false telephone prescriptions for hydrocodone and filling the prescriptions for two friends who then sold the pills, splitting the profits with the pharmacist. General Milgram also announced that New York resident Edward Polanco pled guilty to racketeering charges involving his part in a prescription drug ring that illegally distributed millions of dollars of controlled substances in New York and New Jersey.
- Vermont Attorney General William Sorrell announced that a licensed registered nurse was convicted for unlawfully possessing a controlled substance. She was sentenced to nine to twelve months, all suspended, one year's probation, and forty hours of community service.
- Wisconsin Attorney General J.B. Van Hollen participated in a prescription drug abuse roundtable this month. General Van Hollen's office also announced the arrest of fifteen individuals accused of being participants in a drug trafficking scheme that dealt in controlled substances.
Judicial Developments
- A Minnesota judge has ruled that a 13-year old boy with Hodgkin's lymphoma has been "medically neglected" because of his parents' decision to use natural remedies instead of chemotherapy to treat his illness. The judge acknowledged that Daniel Hauser's wishes are to use nutritional supplements and other alternative treatments favored by a Missouri-based religious group, the Nemenhah Band. However, the judge held that Daniel has only a "rudimentary understanding at best of the risks and benefits of chemotherapy. . . . He does not believe he is ill currently. The fact is that he is very ill." The judge, thus, ruled that there is a "compelling state interest sufficient to override the minor's genuine opposition." Subsequent to the ruling, Daniel left the state with his mother, returning to Minnesota the end of the month. The parents have now announced that they will comply with the court's order.
- Nevada's Clark County is prosecuting a mother for withholding medical care from her 15-year old son. Lena Anderson has been charged with murder by child abuse of her son Patrick, who had a chronic kidney disorder requiring the use of a catheter which needed to be changed four times a day. The defense argues that the murder charge should be dismissed because refusing to submit to life-sustaining medical treatment is not murder.
- Disability Rights Wisconsin is suing the University of Wisconsin, alleging that doctors at the hospital broke the law by withholding treatment from two developmentally disabled patients with pneumonia. In Disability Rights Wisconsin v. University of Wisconsin Hospital and Clinics et al., No. 2009CV002340 (Cir. Ct. Dane County, filed May 15, 2009), the plaintiff alleges that state law prevents parents and others from withholding treatment from patients who cannot make such decisions for themselves unless these patients are in a "persistent vegetative state."
Legislative Developments
- A panel of Iowa state legislators has requested that the Iowa Board of Medicine delay implementation of a proposed policy change that would allow only doctors to provide certain pain management treatments for patients. Currently, certified registered nurse anesthetists provide chronic pain care in 91 of Iowa's 117 hospitals.
- The New York legislature is considering A07729, the Family Health Care Decisions Act, which would give family members the authority to make decisions for incapacitated patients who do not have a written health designee or treatment instructions.
- North Dakota Governor John Hoeven signed into law SB2236, which calls for the development of a health care directive registry within the Secretary of State's office.
- Virginia has enacted new legislation which expands the types of decisions a person may make with an advance directive. These include preferences about mental health care, health care facility admission, and maintenance treatments. The new law also addresses issues such as decision-making capacity, revocation of advance directive documents, and the protection of agents and providers who act in good faith in carrying out a patient's instructions.
Pain Management
- The Center for Practical Bioethics has announced the establishment of the Kathleen M. Foley Chair for Pain and Palliative Care, which will be funded by a $3 million endowment. The new chair will amplify and continue the Center's involvement in overcoming barriers to care for those in pain, including increasing standards for pain education research and policy.
- An expert panel of the American Geriatrics Society has suggested that adults ages 75 are better off taking opiates than non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs for chronic pain that cannot be relieved through alternatives such as acetaminophen.
- The Food and Drug Administration held a two-day public hearing to get input from physicians and others to decide what factors the agency should consider in drafting a Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy (REMS) to reduce opioid-caused adverse affects. A major concern is that, with more regulation, physicians will not prescribe needed opioids to patients. The American Academy of Pain Medicine submitted comments on REMS, noting that the priorities should be the establishment of prescription monitoring programs with accurate and real-time data, monitoring of all opioids, not only slow release opioids, and education for physicians, pharmacists, and patients about medicines and monitoring.
- A University of Michigan study, published in The Journal of Pain and Symptom Management, found that minorities reported much more consistent and more breathrough pain in cancer patients. Non-white participants also reported a higher incidence of pain interfering with general activity, mood, and walking ability.
Prescription Drug Diversion
- The National Prescription Drug Threat Assessment, prepared by the National Drug Intelligence Center in conjunction with the Drug Enforcement Administration, was released this month. The report finds that unintentional deaths involving prescription opioids increased 114 percent from 2001 to 2005.
- Gil Kerlikowske took office as director of the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy this month. He announced as one of his top priorities curtailing abuse of prescription drugs.
- An investigative report in the Florida Sun-Sentinel noted that one in five of the doctors who work in pain clinics in South Florida has a history of professional discipline or criminal convictions.
- The State of Connecticut has asked for more than $620,000 in federal stimulus grants to combat "doctor shopping" by identifying individuals dealing with addiction and offering rehabilitation instead of criminal prosecution.
- After a lengthy investigation, Michigan state officials have arrested four doctors and charged them with various counts involving insurance fraud, falsified medical records, and prescribing controlled substances outside normal medical practice. All four doctors are family practitioners. Doctors Richard Neely and James Park face eighteen felony counts each; Dr. Peter Cotey faces two felony counts; and Dr. David Huff faces three felony counts. A fifth doctor was charged but has not yet been taken into custody.
- A Tennessee doctor and his patient were arrested by state officials and charged with 14 counts of fraud. According to investigators, during the five years that there was a doctor-patient relationship between the two individuals, Dr. James Durkin gave Regina Duff prescriptions for controlled substances that were not medically necessary.
- Dr. Masoud Bamdad, who operated a medical clinic in San Fernando, California, was found guilty on 13 felony counts for writing prescriptions for controlled substances outside of the usual course of professional practice and without a legitimate medical purpose.
- Murray, Utah, physician Warren R. Stack pled guilty to one count of conspiracy and two counts of health care fraud. He had originally been indicted on one count of conspiracy; five counts of dispensing drugs outside the bounds of medical practice, resulting in death; seven counts of unlawful distribution of a controlled substance; and five counts of health care fraud. Federal prosecutors will recommend eight years' incarceration when he is sentenced in July.
- Carrollton, Georgia, physician Dr. Phil Astin III has been sentenced to serve ten years' in federal prison. He pled guilty last January to illegally dispensing prescription drugs from 2002 until he was arrested in 2007. Astin was the physician for professional wrestler Chris Benoit.

Ask Slashdot: How Many (Electronics) Gates Is That Software Algorithm?
Break down your algorithm (365 comments)
It is probable that you can break down your algorithm -(I do not mean code) into a pipeline of elementary processing and find implementations (IP) for each of them.
to give out an estimate:
- subdivise your algorithm into simpler pieces
- find for each simple piece how it can or could be implemented in hardware and the complexity of each piece.
- do the sum.
Indeed an hardware designer or consultant would be of a great help here.


text: What Your Power Tools Are Trying to Tell You Blades getting stuck, burn marks on the wood, tools that don't have the power they used todon't just ignore these warning signs and forge ahead with your projects. Your tools are trying to tell you what's wrong, so take a second and listen. By Doug Mahoney Return to Gallery Return to Gallery Return to Gallery Return to Gallery Return to Gallery Return to Gallery Return to Gallery Return to Gallery 5 of 5 Losing Power Tool: All of them Problem: The saw not cutting the way it used to, or are screws not going in as quickly as they didn't in the past? What the Tool is Trying to Tell You: It might need a little work under the hood. We're not talking about a temporary problem, like your cordless drill's battery running dry. This is the long-term problem where your tool has gradually lost power over time. It's probably because of wear on the motor's brushes. The brushes are small blocks of carbon that deliver electricity to the tool's motor; over time they become worn down. You may also see some sparking inside the housing of the motor. In most inexpensive tools, the brushes are inaccessible. But in pro-grade gear, they're easy to replace. There are two of them in each tool, and to get at them, just unscrew the two nickel-sized black circles that sit in each side of the motor. Pop in the new ones and you're back in action. It's worth noting that many power tool companies are starting to make the transition to brushless tools. With the new motor configuration, the tools are capable of providing longer run time, requiring less motor maintenance, and producing more power.
